What Certifications Will Security Leaders Strive to Achieve in 2017? CPP Leads the Way
According to a Security magazine poll, the Certified Protection Professional (CPP) certification from ASIS International is at the top of 30% of security leaders’ lists of what certifications they plan to obtain this year. The CPP was closely followed by the CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional, from (ISC)2).
More specialized certifications, such as those for healthcare (HCISPP) or cloud security (CCSP) were less popular, and only 1% of survey respondents said they planned to achieve the Certified Master Anti-terrorism Specialist certification (CMAS) from the Anti-Terrorism Accreditation Board.
